Synopsis

The main story arc of The Basics of Killing follows the demise of an idyllic relationship between parents Marko and Dunja, which falls apart entirely due to lack of respect that is itself a result of the loss of a job and the consequent financial ruin. As the story progresses, the burden that the parents are unable to carry is slowly beginning to fall more and more onto the children’s shoulders.
